Avery Rome: Book two...

[qHnED7SnYgQs]

I'm really torn between telling you to not overdo it and shouting, "Faster! Faster! Write faster!"

[rockhazard]

I've long since come to the conclusion that "vacation" means something different to Dale than most of us. So I don't really worry much about him burning out anymore, even though it could perhaps still happen. Even so, my reading avarice makes me feel like a pushy jerk about it.

[David]

Is it even possible to push an author that thinks writing only ten thousand words in a day is slacking off?

Think of it as encouragement.

[rockhazard]

You might have a point there...

[PS Power]

I only wrote five thousand words today. (Starting a new book though...)

Now I'm looking at the story and don't feel like writing it. I might find something else to work on for a while instead.

Part of that is that I don't want to get stale. I DO have ideas for stories, though some of them are a bit extreme as to how different they might be...

I can tone down things a bit...

Maybe something about Christmas, Clowns, Killers or horrors that cannot be imagined?

How about one with Chris the line walker... spreading Christmas cheer to all the worlds.

[Ronald Dukarski]

I say... Roll them all into one in an edition of the 'Greasepaint Chronicles. And do it topically. Our hero comes to the aid of a group of clowns being persecuted by a well meaning citizens group just before Christmas. It seems a clown was observed trying to entice children into his clown car. It becomes evident some child or children have fallen prey to the horrors of a pedophile. Blah, blah,blah you know, you'll work it out.

Being a fan of goofball cult classics, I enjoyed Killer Clowns From Outer Space. So working alien invasion into the story would be cool in my book. After all, they're painting their faces for a reason. It's clearly sinister...

[PS Power]

The only problem with coming up with a (fairly good, by the way, Ronald...) idea like that is that now if I do anything too close to it, I will have "stolen" the idea from you.

Which means that you have to write that out now. Sorry, its a rule...

So, we can expect to see that before Christmas?
